Color choices

Tarantula fur can use warm brown across the rounded body and shaggy legs, leaving the eyes dark for contrast. Shade the large rock with sandy tan and muted rust, then use olive and sage on the tall cacti and low desert plants. Finish the pebbles in soft gray, with pale yellow around the ground details to separate them from darker foliage.

Desert Texture Patterns

Color the rock, cacti, and plants with distinct repeating bands, spots, or zigzags. Keep the tarantula’s shaggy sections in a separate texture scheme.

Before you print

Tarantula on a Rock Coloring Page has about 100 separate areas to color, a medium level of detail. Crayons work for the larger shapes, and colored pencils or fine markers help in the smaller spaces.

Print the PDF on US Letter paper, or pick “Fit to page” for A4. Try one copy first to check the line weight and margins before printing more.
